Cyberpunk 2077has a cute Easter egg ofThe Witcher 3: Wild Huntthat players can see near the beginning of the game, it has been confirmed. Developer CD Projekt RED revealed a whole host of information about the game this week after revealing a newCyberpunk 2077traileras part of its first Night City Wire event.
If players choose theCorpo Lifepath origin storyfor their version ofCyberpunk 2077protagonist V, they’ll head to work as a counter-intelligence officer at Arasaka, one of the many corporations in the game.

In 2018, Game Director Adam Badowski reportedly said that hehates whenCyberpunk 2077fans ask if Ciri will be in the gameor if the worlds ofThe WitcherandCyberpunkare somehow connected. Now thatThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunthas been confirmed as a video game that exists and is available in Night City, this should finally put any fan theories about the series being connected to rest.
Ciri being on the cover of the magazine is unlikely to be the onlyWitcher 3Easter egg thatCyberpunk 2077players will be able to spot, though. Fans who look very closely atofficial artwork ofCyberpunk 2077gang Tyger Clawswill see cans of drinks with Geralt’s wolf medallion on them. It’s unclear if this drink will be available to purchase in the game, and if V will be able to order a cold can of Geralt soda at a nightclub.
CD Projekt RED has also shown itself to be a huge fan of Easter eggs of other pop culture icons. One piece ofCyberpunk 2077key art features a Pulp Fiction Easter egg, the back of theCyberpunk 2077Xbox One controller has a QR code that takes players to a track by Johnny Silverhand’s band, Samurai, and the 48-minute long gameplay demo has an Easter egg of The Shining.
TheCyberpunk 2077map may be smaller thanThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’s but it should give fans a huge amount of things to discover. If CD Projekt RED’s past behavior has shown, that will also means plenty of Easter eggs to find.
Cyberpunk 2077releases November 19 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, with Stadia and Xbox Series X versions also in development.
